On a recent visit to Pot & Pantry's new location in the Mission District of San Francisco, I was taken with owner Donna Suh Wageman's collection of new and mildly used kitchenware: "It's the concept of a vintage store applied to kitchenware," she says. Pot & Pantry offers everything from kitchen linens and local food products (INNA jam and Sightglass Coffee) to Le Creuset and Calphalon cookware. With a custom staircase and shelving by Richard Hubbard of Hubbardfoss, the store feels as though you've stepped into a small Scandinavian kitchen.
